Safe Environment

The Archdiocese of San Antonio requires all clergy, staff, candidates for ordination, and adult volunteers who minister to children/youth to complete Adult Safe Environment Training.  Training is required to be renewed every three years.  The Archdiocese of San Antonio is currently using Protecting God's Children developed by Virtus to educate adults on abuse prevention.  Virtus provides traditional on-site training, on-line training, and on-line renewal training.  
To register for a training or to conduct the on-line training, click on the link below.

All volunteers must also complete a Criminal Background Check.
